Philippine long-fingered bat

Mammals

The Philippine long-fingered bat (Miniopterus paululus) is a bat of the family Miniopteridae that the Mammal Diversity Database places in the Australasian realm, with recorded countries Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. Ned Hollister described it in 1913 in a review of the Philippine land mammals in the United States National Museum, from Guimaras Island in the Philippines. The database lists it in Mammal Species of the World of 2005, gives its IUCN Red List status as Least Concern, and records the alternative name Philippine bent-winged bat.
